Nuvali (Solenad 1&2)

By Tin Gallemaso - 4:39:00 PM

After years of not visiting the South (particularly Tagaytay area which now felt like it's only a stone's throw away from our house sans traffic) I've been going there again and these are the links in five months stretch: 1,2, 3, and 4.

While Paseo de Sta. Rosa has always been our stop-over place because it has the fast foods, we headed to Solenad this time. Well, I've always wanted to go to Nuvali (fish-feeding and water taxi area) but I haven't looked it up properly online. Back then, I didn't know that Nuvali is what you call the whole place and Solenad, which we've passed by a lot of times already, was a part of it too. And in Solenad 1 is where the fish-feeding and water taxis are located.

And the oh so very very very hot summer noon...

Taken from the lake area.

Approaching the fish feeding area.

Man-made lake.

Fish feeding isn't my thing since we have a small fish pond in the comfort of our home. I don't see the need to pay for fish feeds when I can feed fishes at home for free. But looking at this, I just couldn't resist so I bought a pack of their food.This is the situation before feeding.

P 15.00/pack

I've never seen koi this plenty!

And this is what happens when you start throwing feeds.I pity the fishes, they had to hurt themselves for foods... or maybe it's just me and my sympathy. hahahaI'd throw them a sack of fish feeds if I can!

Some are literally out of the water when fed.

These fishes are really a site to see but I just couldn't help it but to feel sad for them.It mirrors life's reality na may ibang tao dyan na ang sitwasyon ay halos makipag-patayan na maka-kain lang... it hurts a bit.

Meanwhile, in Caleruega, kois are living the life...they're well fed and are relaxed in their pond. But I can't speak for the fishes. hahaha. Baka nage-enjoy naman pala sila sa ganyan.

After feeding the fishes, we headed back to Solenad 2.Free parking nga pala.

Water Taxi which will take you around the man-made lake.

We've only seen a part of Nuvali and I still want to come back to ride the water taxi and walk around more perhaps.
